REVIEW: Superman & Lois – Season 3, Episode 9 “The Dress”

AlexGherzo | May 24, 2023 | 0

Superman & Lois feels like its old self again in “The Dress,” a fantastic, character-driven episode that strikes the most human chord this season has yet. Lois’ cancer is front and center again, but it’s handled much better than it had been previously, in an honest way that humanizes thr...

Superman: Legacy Casting Rumors Take Flight

AlexGherzo | May 16, 2023 | 0

Casting rumors for James Gunn’s Superman: Legacy, the first entry (kind of, theatrically, unless you count The Flash or… whatever, nobody knows what’s going on right now) in his and Peter Safran’s DCU. After taking considerable heat for dispensing with Henry Cavill after his promised return ...

With “Of Sound Mind,” Superman & Lois has officially become a CW show – or, more accurately, a Greg Berlanti show after the veil has been removed. It’s no longer about showing Superman in a positive light, talking about his virtues and why he still matters. He’s become a punching bag, ...

REVIEW: Superman & Lois – Season 3, Episode 5, “Head On”

AlexGherzo | Apr 12, 2023 | 0

I was dreading “Head On” when I read the plot synopsis on the CW app before watching it; another episode dedicated to Clark and Sam being too worried about Lois and her illness. But this is much better than the show has been all season, and “Head On” is a necessary episode that forces Lois &...
